Cara, Courtney and Rui are a huge part of the leadership team. They are training as
leaders in hopes that they will be a significant part of the halaus future. They will gain
great respect for the meaning of "teacher" as they experience the role of a leader in action.
Cara is a graduate of Roosevelt High School Class of 2007. Courtney is a Junior at
Kaimuki High School. Rui is the newest member to our leadership team and a Sophomore
at Punahou School. These girls as well as our Na Alaka'i are all volunteers of the halau

interest and passion for the Hula.

| The halau's success and accomplishments are due to people who are willing to take the time to stop, teach and learn with the students. It is through the Kumu Kokua (teachers helpers) and Na Alaka'i (leaders) that understanding, clarification, and special attention are extended to the students. Volunteering is very important for the longevity of the Halau. It is through their love, support, and interactions that we are able to continue the Halau for sixteen years. |
